AJ has been doing a great job with the cross-exam of Yuri so far. I like how he's staying calm and keeping displays of anger minimal. Some of his most effective moments are when he slows down, pauses, and allows a bit of quiet -- then we pay attention. He's landed at least…
NEW: Brian Higgins apparently told investigators during his interview that the reason he couldn’t see John O’Keefe’s body on the front lawn when he was leaving 34 Fairview that night was because “he didn’t see a body because it was hidden by a snowbank.” There was hardly a…
Jen's hair, style, tan, overall Beachy Mom makeover: A+
I'm still not over Jen McCabe and her glow up yesterday. See you in Dedham later this morning.
Happy Jen - “can you show me the report” McCabe Day
Why is Jen McCabe so concerned about her previous testimony and her prior statements if she’s a “truthful and honest person” like she claims?
Thank you, AJ, for listing "There was no collision" as all of the top 3 points. Great!
KR Defense Trial 2 Wishlist 1- Focus on "John wasn't hit by a car".... this is the crux of the charges against KR: vehicle stuff. If JOK wasn't killed by a car collision, then KR must be acquitted. 2- Skip third party culprit topic. It'll never be Proven, it's just…
Karen Read Trial 2 Predictions 1- A juror will be dismissed under suspicious circumstances. 2- Better Bev: she will make terrible rulings, snap at AJ and DY a bunch, grease Hank’s game, put on a fake smile or two to the jury each day... but generally will irritate us slightly…
Karen Read Trial 2 Verdict Odds 60% acquittal: - The injuries don’t match. - Taillight nonsense. - Proctor is yucky. This is, by a mile, my hoped-for outcome. The CW’s evidence is just too weak to overcome reasonable doubt re KR, and there's lots of reasons to suspect…
Now 95% sure KR didn't do it. Probability of conviction: 15%. The CW case was atrocious. I went in ready to entertain and believe explanations of unlikely events.... but after 6+ weeks of garbage, I was bored, annoyed by the wasted time, and angered by gaslighting. FKR

Let's do a thread doing a close reading of Douglas Murray's article in the NY Post, in which he writes about his encounter with Dave Smith on Joe Rogan's podcast. If you care about facts and truth and stuff, I promise this will be highly illuminating. 🧵

I didn’t want anyone after Ohio State to get the trophy so I decided to break it
The CFP National Championship Trophy falls apart as VP JD Vance tries to hold it aloft at the White House.
Gen X wouldn’t protest for money—we’d just call your cause lame and watch it RIP, buried under our shrugs.
so long as you don't care how tragically lame and unhip it makes your movement look, hiring boomers to become your permanent protest class makes a ton of sense. > they're all bored > seeking meaning > have memories of the 60's protest culture as cool > think "CNN is news" > and…

From YouTube: User- bntrouble31 (link below) Bought a taillight from a 2021 LX570 to show what it takes to break the taillight and what the taillight would look with the lights on & all the red taillight removed from the housing. Full video- youtu.be/CBqMcX4jgeA?si…
Things I want prosecution to do differently in Karen Read Trial 2 1- Efficiency: Start with and focus on the Lexus collision, and keep the "what everyone did and who they talked to that night" stuff to a minimum... Trial 1, it was 2+ weeks of "pre-buttal" garbage from the CW…
My favorite Witnesses from Karen Read Trial 1 Nicholas Roberts: Just super-likable. By that point in the trial, it was refreshing to have someone answer questions straight without dodgy gameplaying. He showed up in his work shirt, and I found myself imagining him at work…
